This may or may not be a good thing for you, but it's probably why some people think it's too complicated.
There are multiple brush engines in Corel Painter depending on the medium with different settings for each. It's just a matter of what the program is geared more towards. But don't take this to mean that you can't or shouldn't work with layers and blending modes in Painter like any other program. If you're the type that subscribes to the philosophy that achieving painterly looks in digital is about following closer to traditional techniques then Painter rewards that - especially with it's highest fidelity natural media simulations. If you're a person who needs to tweak every stroke endlessly then be aware that beyond layers and simple masking there's not a lot of support.
This also means that Painter hasn't invested in non-destructive workflow features like adjustment layers found in something like PS. If you're into more of a painterly look then it's definitely worth considering. If you're doing more comics style and colouring then Painter probably doesn't have any advantage vs anything else. Corel Painter user for 10 years, but also use Photoshop.
